Using API to query a specific jump client by hostname

Unless something has changed, you have to go through page by page.

Below is a rough example. Loops through until it finds the client. It does also sort based on last connection time in case there are duplicates for that jump client. (Please productionize this and add whatever error handling you want. This is simply an example) - 

    $PageIndex = 1
    do{
        Write-Host "PAGE $PageIndex"
        $JumpClientList = Invoke-RestMethod -Method Get -Headers @{"authorization"="Bearer $Token"; "Accept"="application/json"} -Uri "https://[Redacted]/api/config/v1/jump-client?current_page=$PageIndex"
        $JumpClient = $JumpClientList | Where-Object {$_.HostName -eq 'YourHostname'}
        if($JumpClient){
            $JumpClientID = $JumpClient | Sort-Object last_connect_timestamp -Descending | Select-Object -First 1 -ExpandProperty "id"
            Write-Host "Found jump client [$($JumpClient.hostname)] with ID [$JumpClientID)]"
        } 
        $PageIndex++
    }while($JumpClientList.count -eq 100 -AND $null -eq $JumpClientID)

Thank you. That worked to get the jump client ID. Now I’m running into a new issue. I’m able to connect, but I’m unable to query the computer’s uptime. Is it possible to do that?

BeyondTrust provides great documentation. I would recommend that over ChatGPT, or try pointing your LLM to the documentation - Get a Jump Client.

That data might not be available for the API. I don’t see it at first glance.

I looked through the documentation and didn’t see a way to do it there either. I was trying to script a remote support session that would provide the computer uptime. I figured since the jump client could be contacted it would be able to run a script on the machine and provide the result. Unfortunately that doesn't appear to be the case.

Maybe this would be better suited for the endpoint automation within the tool? You could write a script to get uptime then run it on the online machines. 

That’s a good thought too, but the API doesn’t allow me to run the endpoint automation job. I could schedule it, but then it wouldn’t be accurate when we want to query it.

And I even if I run the endpoint automation I can’t retrieve the results through the API.
